description Introduction: As per the World Health Organization's mental health report for 2022, nearly a billion people have mental health issues, and 82% of them are in low and middle-income countries where mental health services are largely absent. For the successful integration of mental health into primary health care, proper training and education of primary care professionals are mandatory. Primary care nurses are in an excellent position to screen, identify, dual collaboration for treatment planning/referral, and follow-up of persons with mental illness (PMI), but they often lack the confidence and competence to tackle mental health problems. The study aimed to develop and validate the clinical schedule for primary care psychiatric nursing (CSP-N). Materials and Methods: It is conducted in two phases: the development and validation phases. An extensive literature search has been conducted, and the ten themes derived from the two-focused group discussions and three-direct one-to-one interviews and input from mental health experts were used to design the CSP-N. The CSP-N was checked for content validity by a panel of 17 experts using the item-level content validity index (I-CVI) and the scale-level content validity index (S-CVI). Results: The draft version 1 of the CSP-N showed high content validity for individual items (I-CVI range: 0.82 to 1.00) and high overall content validity (S-CVI = 0.95), and suggestions from the experts were incorporated. The CSP-N was developed in four modules. The single-measure two-way mixed absolute agreement ICC value was calculated (for 32 subjects) for the reliability test, and the ICC value was 0.97 with a 95% CI (0.94, 0.99). Conclusions: Using an iterative approach, the development and validation of the CSP-N demonstrated high I-CVI and S-CVI for screening and identification, dual collaboration for the treatment plan, referral, and follow-up of a person with mental illness by the nurses in the community.
